AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Canvas 380 g/m2 - 60x90 - 1/3
Canvas with an extra white border for framing on a wooden frame with a thickness of 4 cm.
Shipped without a frame, rolled in a tube.

IKON is a contemporary digital artist whose research explores the evolution of the image in the technological era and its ongoing redefinition within the global visual ecosystem. His work examines the relationship between cultural symbols, collective memory, and digital language, intervening on iconographic references — historical and contemporary — through a radically contemporary perspective.

Its practice is distinguished by the reinterpretation of famous works belonging to the history of art, as well as works by lesser-known artists or graphics drawn from the imagination. IKON performs a transformation of the image, overlaying graphic signs, recurring symbols, urban typography, generative patterns, and high-intensity color interventions.

His path begins in the field of graphics and visual communication, where he develops solid technical skills and a strong sensitivity to structure, composition, and color dynamics. Over time, the project dimension evolves into an autonomous artistic inquiry, aimed at building a personal language entirely developed in a digital environment.
IKON's practice integrates graphic and photographic manipulation, digital collage, pattern generation, visual distortions, digital painting, and remixing, using software such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator not as mere technical tools, but as genuine expressive devices.

His works situate themselves in the contemporary visual landscape as critical reflections on the transformation of the image in the era of infinite reproducibility. Through the alteration of recognizable icons, IKON questions concepts of authenticity, authorship, and permanence, capturing the viewer's attention with an immediate visual tension: what is familiar is destabilized, what is historical is projected into the present.
In this space of fracture between memory and intervention, tradition and digital language meet, contaminate each other and redefine themselves.
In recent years she has participated in exhibition and collective projects dedicated to new media art and digital experimentation, consolidating an international presence across Europe, Asia, and North America.
